Oliver Greenall pitches Boundsy Boy in against experienced handicappers after just a couple of starts. Runner-up both times. his juvenile has to be a consideration off a feather weight. Easkey Lad has responded positively to a drop back to the minimum trip with two wins and a second from his last three and should be in the mix again while Pillar Of Steel found form with a vengeance in midsummer when rattling up a hat-trick. He is 19lb higher as a result, however, and PASS RUSHER is just preferred. He's looked a different proposition the last twice after a quiet period and can handle a 4lb rise after impressing over course and distance last month.
